Frequently Asked Questions

How does the CV-writing process work?

TopCV uses the expert knowledge of our CV writers, combined with feedback from CV-scanning software called applicant tracking systems (ATS). ATS filters applicants based on keywords and formatting, and TopCV analyses your CV using similar technology. Our expert writers break down this analysis to figure out how to make your CV more effective.

Your writer will collaborate with you to provide a first draft, which will be delivered to you in about a week. Then, you'll have another week to provide feedback to your writer, with up to two rounds of revisions. The process typically takes one to two weeks.

Does TopCV have writers in my industry and region?

Our network of over 1,200 writers has experience in over 65 industries. We connect you with a CV-writing expert for your industry.

Our CV writers with expert knowledge of your industry are qualified in showcasing your accomplishments by using the same terminology, that hiring managers look for in your field. This means that important keywords, along with your skills and achievements, will stand out to hiring managers and satisfy all electronic screening tools.

How do I collaborate with my CV writer?

Our CV-writing process is collaborative between the writer and the client. We use your old CV as a primary source of information. If you don’t have a CV, don’t worry, your writer will send you a brief questionnaire that will provide all the information that we need to get started. Once this has been provided, your new CV will be delivered to you in about a week. Then, you'll have another week to provide feedback to your writer, with up to two rounds of revisions. The process typically takes one to two weeks.
